Binding XML to Menu Control - Web Development Discussion Boards

Can anyone recommend a real good and simple guide to layouts with CSS? I have several books, but what I'm really after is a "So you want to align this with this? Well then do this!"

Me: Can you see the "up" arrow?
User:Errr...ummm....no.
Me: Can you see an arrow that points upwards?
User: Oh yes, I see it now!

There's this[^]. This[^].

You almost got a one for linking to Meyer... but totally redeemed yourself with the second link (although I'd prefer a book I can charge to expenses) Smile | :)

Ah, but the Meyer is because you can download his projects without having had to buy the books - and see how he put them together. I always show people that link if they need CSS and let them go "Wow - it's free."

Ah, but you forget that Meyer is a knob, and the kind of chap you'd happily punch in the face in VERY short order if you ever met him.

here is his product:

I'm having some issues with binding an xml document to a menu control. I have an xml file and it has every possible link in it. I'm trying to create some security to the menu by filtering out the nodes that the user does not have access to. If the user does not have access to the link I remove it from the xml file. Onces its finished going through the xml file I bind it to the menu. It works for the first person that logs into the site. But if somone else logs in and they have different access they are getting the same menu as the first person that logged in. So it seems that who ever logs into the site first it gives that menu to everyone. I run it locally as one user and then login as another user I get the same menu. The only time it changes is when I rebuild the project. I verified its running everytime by saving the new xml file with the users name in it. The user is seeing links that's not in there xml file. It always uses the xml file of the user that first logged into the site. I'm at a loss and need some help. What am I missing or do I need to go in a different direction? Here is my code ...

<br />
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();<br />
doc.Load(page.Server.MapPath("~/Leftmenu.xml"));<br />
<br />
XmlNodeList nodeList;<br />
XmlNode root = doc.DocumentElement;<br />
<br />
nodeList = root.SelectNodes("//MENUITEM");<br />
<br />
foreach (XmlNode node in nodeList)<br />
{<br />
    XmlAttributeCollection attrColl = node.Attributes;<br />
    string strSecurityGroups = attrColl["security"].Value;<br />
<br />
    if (strSecurityGroups != "")<br />
    {<br />
        if (!user.InUserGroup(strSecurityGroups))<br />
        {<br />
            XmlNode parentNode = node.ParentNode;<br />
            parentNode.RemoveChild(node);<br />
            if (!parentNode.HasChildNodes && parentNode.Name != "root")<br />
            {<br />
                XmlNode grandParentNode = parentNode.ParentNode;<br />
                grandParentNode.RemoveChild(parentNode);<br />
                if (!grandParentNode.HasChildNodes && grandParentNode.Name != "root")<br />
                {<br />
                    XmlNode greatParent2Node = grandParentNode.ParentNode;<br />
                    greatParent2Node.RemoveChild(grandParentNode);<br />
                    if (!greatParent2Node.HasChildNodes && greatParent2Node.Name != "root")<br />
                    {<br />
                        XmlNode greatParent3Node = greatParent2Node.ParentNode;<br />
                        greatParent3Node.RemoveChild(greatParent2Node);<br />
                        if (!greatParent3Node.HasChildNodes && greatParent3Node.Name != "root")<br />
                        {<br />
                            XmlNode greatParent4Node = greatParent3Node.ParentNode;<br />
                           greatParent4Node.RemoveChild(greatParent3Node);<br />
                            if (!greatParent4Node.HasChildNodes && greatParent4Node.Name != "root")<br />
                            {<br />
                                XmlNode greatParent5Node = greatParent4Node.ParentNode;<br />
                                greatParent5Node.RemoveChild(greatParent4Node);<br />
                            }<br />
                        }<br />
                    }<br />
                }<br />
            }<br />
        }<br />
    }<br />
}<br />
<br />
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();<br />
doc.Save(sw);<br />
XmlDataSource xds = new XmlDataSource();<br />
xds.XPath = "root/CATEGORY/CATEGORY";<br />
<br />
xds.Data = sw.ToString();<br />
mnLeft.DataSource = xds;<br />
mnLeft.DataBind();<br />
<br />

am writing an app that uses the .Net classes TCPClient and NetworkStream to read and write data between 2 machines. All works fine.

I have recently found a need to be able to send Http 1.1 with a SOAP message as the Http body. Currently i am using an XmlDocument to load and parse the SOAP data. However to do this i first have to read in the HTTP header, search for the beginning of the body and construct my own XmlDocument.

There must be a better way. I don't want to call a web service, i just want to send http with a soap body and receive the same.

I am looking for a means of loading in the NetworkStream into some kind of HTTP object to read the http stuff and also load the body into some simple Soap object that can be used to pull out/ set values.

Comments, Suggestions Welcomed.

Hi the problem is I have an html page in which I add a cookie then it redirect me to a page out of my web application then return back from there to my web application again to an aspx page in which I am trying to access the cookie in Page_Load but it return null

the code in html page:

var date = new Date();<br />
	date.setHours(date.getHours() + 1);<br />
	var x = date.getUTCDate();	document.cookie = "us=5555; expires=" + x.ToString + "; path=/";<br />

the code in aspx page:

Label3.Text = Request.Cookies["us"].ToString();<br />

thanks

You got that backwards. You should update the record before moving on to the next record.

Why don't you use an update query instread of looping through a recordset?

Experience is the sum of all the mistakes you have done.

how can use plz give code where have to use and how thanks for taking response.

Hi Guys,

Is there a way wherein I can call the FileUpload 'browse' button?

Thanks

Why?

When using the FileUpload control it doens't look good when browsing it thru IE7, firefox, and safari.

And I don't know if you have a better idea. My purpose is to make the FileUpload.visible = False. And then, I will just add a normal button control and a textbox.

And when I click the normal button it supposed to call the FileUpload's browses button and the result wil be placed on the textbox. That's the reason.

Because if you will use the FileUpload control which has a browse button set on it, and once you added another button at the right of the browse button it will look funny when browsing it thru IE7, Firefox, or Safari.

I hope there's a better way of doing this Smile | :)

See the link Michael posted - it's a nasty hack, but for now it's probably the best we can do in terms of making them look nicer.

IMHO, it's hardly worth the trouble.

Normally, you can just call "document.getElementById('inputfile').click();" from Javascript. But it won't work for non-IE browsers...

I suggest you to read the article Styling an input type="file".. The technique used in that article is that set the transparent to input "file" and move under the element that you wanna call "browse" button...

As performance issue, what is the appropriate approach to write a code which select records from the database into array and then filter them or filter the data while running the query on the database.

In other words, Does running mathematical operations and filtration (like WHERE ..) on database side better than doing it on the application side?

Absolutely, that is what the database is for, that is what it is optimised to do.
